67 <br />as lot 30 on tax map 35 of Bingham Township. The surrounding land uses <br />are residential, and the adjacent zoning is Agricultural Residential. <br />in 1981 the EC -5 zoning lot was drawn incorrectly on the Zoning Atlas. <br />The auto body shop is on the western portion of the property. The <br />zoning lot was shown 243 feet east of the body shop on an undeveloped <br />part of lot 30. The proposed rezoning is to: 1) correct an error in the <br />Zoning Atlas by shifting the EC -5 district west to its proper location <br />and out of the right -of -way; and 2) extend the district three (3) feet <br />to the north so that the structure and a proposed addition will meet <br />required setbacks. <br />THERE WERE NO QUESTIONS OR COMMENTS FROM THE BOARD OF COMMISSIONERS, <br />PLANNING BOARD OR CITIZENS. <br />A motion was made by Commissioner Marshall, seconded by Commissioner <br />Hartwell, to approve the proposed rezoning from AR to EC -5 as per the <br />Planning Board's recommendation. <br />VOTE: UNANIMOUS <br />D. ASSIGNMENT OF HOUSE & BUILDING NUMBERS <br />1. Rural Route 7 - Hillsborough <br />2. Rural Routes 1 & 7 - Durham <br />This presentation was made by Marvin Collins. In summary this <br />item was presented to receive citizen comment on proposed house and <br />building numbers to be assigned to Orange County Rural Route 7 served by <br />the Hillsborough Post office and Rural Routes 1 and 7 (partial) served <br />by the Durham Post Office. <br />QUESTIONS AND COMMENTS FROM THE BOARD OF COMMISSIONERS AND PLANNING <br />BOARD <br />Commissioner Hartwell indicated that he has received inquires about <br />road names. <br />Collins informed the Board that if a road was previously named, a Public <br />Hearing would be needed to change the name. For a road without a name, <br />the wishes of citizens who live on that road would be taken into <br />account. <br />Chris Best stated that he felt the Emergency Management employees <br />would greatly benefit from a one -time training class which would explain <br />the new Enhanced 911 system. They need to have a thorough understanding <br />of the grid system in each district so that they can continue to serve <br />the public in the shortest amount of time possible. <br />Chairman Carey indicated that he had received several letters from <br />citizens who were scheduled for address changes. These people do not <br />feel confident that this will be the last time their addresses will <br />change. <br />COMMENTS OR QUESTIONS FROM CITIZENS <br />
